Making SolusVM Xen PV Template from one i bought off stacklet
 
Hello,

I am having an issue with creating a solusvm xen pv template from an existing solusvm xen pv template. For starters, ive been following this guide:

http://forum.soluslabs.com/showthrea...s-xen-template

This has worked for me several times in the past successfully. What this does is it allows me to take the centos 6 stacklet template i bought and which can instantly deploy multiple vms in solusvm from, and I can install some software so that it is included in the centos template(kind of like a snapshot). Basically, ive been using this guide for some time and its worked successfully for making the template of centos with a LAMP server, Wordpress, Apache server, etc. However, recently I have been trying to make a template from this centos 6 stacklet template that comes with an admin panel(VestaCP, ISPConfig, etc). This I have been unsuccessful with, well partially. I am able to make the template successfully, as well as create virtual machines in solusvm with it successfully, however the ip address every new vm is created with is the same. it is the same ip that is in the templates ifcfg-eth0 file. The thing is with these templates is normally they update the ifcfg-eth0 file with every new vm created with the ip address specified in solusvm, however after using a template with any admin panel installed, the ip address does not update. vms created from this template still boot and everything runs accordingly, even the admin panel. its just the ip address needs to be changed, and really its a one time change, cause then it stays after. But im wondering what service is installed with these admin panels that is causing the ifcfg-eth0 file to not be updated with vms created from this template. any help would be appreciated!

Not that I know a ton about it but...
Doesn't your control panel access the v-server over a virtual port? Is it pointed at "v-localhost", v-127.0.0.1 or some specific IP that the machine is currently holding ? If it is the template would have to lock the IP addr on the v-host based on the settings in the control panel or the control panel wont work on the v-host.
